Safari is slow recently only when I have another application running. I have the MacBook Air 8GB 1600mHz memory 1.6 GHz processor Any ideas?..... is it because I am on OS Sierra 10.12.6 ? Of course I did not get the apple care. I am a computer neophyte so be gentle
Go step by step and test.
1. Click in the menu bar and click Force Quit.
Confirm it.
Launch Safari holding the shift key down.
2. If Safari is slow, stops responding, quits unexpectedly, or has other issues
